  1. I've been wondering about that as well. So far I've spotted zero promo from Sire / WB. Either something was sorted out / sunsetted or Warp is sharing some of its US revenues with WB... Wonder if RDJ is free to release as Aphex Twin as he pleases now. Sire/WB doesn't have release rights to WARP material anymore, AFAIK. Yeah, I just checked Spotify and for ICBYD/RDJ you have a 2005 copy-write for Warner Brothers. WB was also on the SAW II vinyl from that US reissue label. However, Drukqs is listed as 2001 Warp. I don't have the CD anymore, but I recall sire's logo being on the US release of that so it would seem as if something changed. No, DrukQs was released in the US on Sire/WB - it was the album that was "promised" after Windowlicker. 26 Mixes for Cash was the first Aphex Twin release on WARP that did not have a Sire/WB US release.

    Rare AFX Blog

    ok so... whats it really called? Hell if I know... I just know that Gabbro Rod Fix is not it's name and was just a made up name assigned to it like Gibble and GebGeb were.
  6. maybe we'll get some new material as afx on rephlex soon after this... if rephlex yet lives Breaths were held... people passed out from lack of air.
  7. How the hell are you guys beating this game? I'm LV50 and still can't do anything in the forest area. The real key to beating Rogue Legacy is to lock down the castle every time before entering - once you know the enemy patterns and castle layout, it becomes less challenging. See my walkthrough video I posted a few pages back. You can beat the entire game in under 20 mins. Broke down and bought Diablo III for PS4... FUN! Never knew how much fun Diablo was!
  8. I could always change it to the 'foldface' image...
  9. If it is a faked image, he spent quite a bit of time doing it - and if it's a digital composition, he has excellent skills.
  10. it would appear so. also lol at his last post in the 311 thread. I don't do shit like that. I don't think locustlx is Richard, either.
  11. Fuck! This theme is breaking my browser! What browser/OS? I can almost guarantee you it's a caching issue, and once you clear it, the theme will load correctly.
  12. Refresh/clear your cache - trust me, the background IS different!
  13. I see there are some tweaks that need to be made... hang tight! Clear your cache - the old backgrounds/css are probably still in it.
  14. New SYRO forum skin now available!

      The member colours are global, so if I change them, then they'll look bad on other skins...

      So if they are global then fuck it, im sure there are more syro images to come, I hope the brighter ones!

      we need a fucking chartreuse skin PRONTO

  15. You earned 6 out of 8 cents!
  16. Except in this case it appears the folded picture is printed, and a photo was taken of presumably Richard holding up the printed picture to his real face. you can see the halftone printing dots in the printed material - the camera's resolution is picking those up, whereas the background it out of focus. But that's precisely what I meant to illustrate. You see the rasters from the printing clearly in the bottom part, and not so clearly in the top part, due to the low depth of field in the scanner. Also, notice in the foldface image that there are compression "squares" of the same size in both parts, and in the top part the squares slope at a different angle from the bottom part. Which again suggests that the entire image is one sheet of paper that has been folded. Further - here is a combination of the foldface and the foldface-w images. I scaled them to the same size and aligned them, before setting the top layer to "difference". This highlights the more significant noise seen in the sharper -w version. Hmm. Not entirely convinced, but you make a strong argument!
  17. Again, the biggest mystery - these are both professionally-printed (from an offset printing press) images - that's quite a bit of expense to go through just for a promotional image if they were not part of the actual packaging or related promotional imagery.
  18. No, you can tell the shrink wrap is on top of the image below... What's really odd is what looks like a Habanero chili pepper in what looks like a pizza box! WTF!
  19. No, you're probably right (and gay)
  20. What's even more interesting is that too is a printed image that a photo has been taken of it, and furthermore is shrinkwrapped... could SYRO already be done and dusted, just waiting to be shipped? Also, I think whatever barcode software you used was wrong: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/kennyklein7 Note the actual barcode.
  21. If you fold a photo and then scan it (without pressing it hard against the glass plate), one part of the photo will be flush with the scanner and therefore sharper. And the other part will be a little distance away from the glass plate due to the folding, and therefore dimmer. I think that's what we're seeing here. Quick verification of theory: Except in this case it appears the folded picture is printed, and a photo was taken of presumably Richard holding up the printed picture to his real face. you can see the halftone printing dots in the printed material - the camera's resolution is picking those up, whereas the background it out of focus.

  24. Centurix! Where have you been young man! Don't get sucked into the Minecraft world - you time will fly by, and you'll be an old man before you know it.
  25. That Twitter account is old. He has a tweet from 2010: https://twitter.com/AphexTwin/status/22896635771 But it didn't have the "confirmed" badge on it (the small blue dot) indicating it's "official" back then (AFAIK)... Cant fucking wait to acquire! Close, no cigar
